From the winner of the 2025 Davitt Award for debut crime fiction An idyllic town. A divisive question. A deadly grudge. 'Gorgeous writing and an unfolding plot rich in both menace and sensuality, Dove shows just how impactful the best psychological thrillers can be.' JACQUELINE BUBLITZ Dove was never afraid for her safety - until now. The question she painted on her fence has turned her quiet hinterland town against itself. She wishes she could tell the police what her neighbour did, or that she's terrified he's behind the sinister events on her flower farm. But Dove has secrets of her own. As information about a local missing teen becomes public, tension spreads throughout the community. Dove wonders if it is fear that's making her seek a lover's protection and risk their stolen meetings, despite the eyes watching on from the hill. With the media swarming Mablethorpe, it's too late to paint over the question and Dove's intuition warns her there might soon be a second death to cover. So why won't she listen? A tense, literary suspense novel about the stories communities tell themselves - and the women who refuse to stay silent.
